A Spielberg movie on Meili?

LOS ANGELES, June 3 (JTA) — Christoph Meili, the former Swiss bank security guard, visited with Steven Spielberg last week while touring the filmmaker’s Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation, a spokeswoman for Spielberg has confirmed. Meili has been under fire from many of his countrymen since January, when he found sensitive Holocaust-era documents in the shredding room of the Union Bank of Switzerland and turned them over to the Swiss Jewish community. Meili has said he felt impelled to act a few months after watching Spielberg’s “Schindler’s List,” so a meeting with the film’s creator held special meaning for both men. Spielberg apparently found Meili’s story of great interest, but a spokeswoman for the director said there were no plans or discussions regarding a future film concentrating on Meili’s action.
